the sunday times report a Crime



the sunday times report a Crime
and punishment of our Society
of fine wine and finer Drugs
r us on every corner of pristine Streets
of gold paved with youth's Blood
thirsty mongrels drinking up the Ocean
waves crashing on our fine Union
of bodies by the grace of God
have mercy on my Soul
mind and body dying in the Sunlight
shining through the bleak Window
shopping for kindly Children
on sale for memorial Day
of reckoning coming to the Predators
and prey a part of nature's Course
on natural selection bio 101
dead in a bomb blast and deadly Shooting
hoops when I was a boy without a Care
for me mommy stay with us Daddy
